Are you sure to have re-compiled libkexiv2/digiKam with the fixed version of Exiv2 ? Look into Help/Components Info for details. This value come from Exiv2 without any manipulation from libkexiv2/digiKam... Gilles Caulier Yes, I'm 100% sure I have recompiled both libkexiv2 and digiKam against the patched exiv2 0.22. Not sure if this have something to do with that the some of the new Tamrons have 2 Lens IDs or something and if they are handled/displayed any differently from exiv2. using ldd, check if digiKam is linked with right exiv2 shared lib. Mine for ex:
[gilles@localhost core]$ ldd /usr/bin/digikam | grep exiv2
libkexiv2.so.10 => /usr/lib64/libkexiv2.so.10 (0x00007fbb10d81000)
libexiv2.so.10 => /usr/lib64/libexiv2.so.10 (0x00007fbb0671e000)

Philip, Just take a care to turn right option in configure script to build Nikon Lens Database with Exiv2. See Below the Cmake configure result of Exiv2 on my computer : -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ -- exiv2 0.22 configure results <http://www.exiv2.org> -- Building PNG support: YES -- Building shared library: YES -- XMP metadata support: YES -- Building static libxmp: NO -- Native language support: YES -- Conversion of Windows XP tags: YES -- Nikon lens database: YES -- Commercial build: NO -- Build the unit tests: NO -- Building translations files: NO -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ I CC Andreas for info. Gilles Caulier I get this:
$ ldd /usr/bin/digikam | grep exiv2
libkexiv2.so.10 => /usr/lib/libkexiv2.so.10 (0x00007f8d42e90000)
libexiv2.so.11 => /usr/lib/libexiv2.so.11 (0x00007f8d3adaa000)
And I build exiv2 with is feature set:
-- Exiv2 0.22 feature configuration summary
--
-- Build a shared library......... YES
-- Use symbol visibility support.. YES
-- PNG image support.............. YES
-- Native language support........ YES
-- Nikon lens database............ YES
-- XMP metadata support........... YES
------------------------------------------------------------------
Just noticed a strange fact. The Lens ID is shown correct in Showfoto under Photograph Properties but not in main Digikam. They are both from the same build and linked against the same libraries and versions. Philip,
Where did you install the newly compiled libexiv2? By default it goes into /usr/local/lib. But digiKam uses /usr/lib/libexiv2.so.11 according to your ldd output above (what about libkexiv2?). The exiv2 configure script takes a flag to change the default install location ("--prefix=/usr" in this case). That's all that is required. The fix for the new lens is binary compatible with libexiv2 0.22, so it is not necessary to recompile anything else.
Andreas
I build packages so they replace the old package in the same place, /usr is --prefix for both exiv2, libkexiv2 and digikam. I don't use any local build directories for this like /usr/local to build stuff. As commented above, the extra strange thing is that it works as it should in showfoto but not in digikam itself. Just to show that the digikam and showfoto binaries are linked against the same exiv2 libraries.
$ ldd /usr/bin/showfoto | grep exiv
libkexiv2.so.10 => /usr/lib/libkexiv2.so.10 (0x00007fe82d1d8000)
libexiv2.so.11 => /usr/lib/libexiv2.so.11 (0x00007fe827157000)
$ ldd /usr/bin/digikam | grep exiv
libkexiv2.so.10 => /usr/lib/libkexiv2.so.10 (0x00007fd75f0cd000)
libexiv2.so.11 => /usr/lib/libexiv2.so.11 (0x00007fd756fe7000)
Philip, The differences between showfoto and digiKam image properties are due to database information filled using Exiv2 with old version of library. The way of showfoto want mean that you use the right libexiv2 version to link digiKam and libkexiv2. Now, as you have updated Exiv2, force the database to re-parse metadata to update contents. Select items from icon-view and got to Captions & tags. On the bottom use the right option to re-read metadata from image. Gilles Caulier Gilles, that's it! It displays as it should now when I re-read the meta-data. Thought that would happen automatically when I updated exiv2. |
